A Characterisation of Tier 2 Services in Child and Adolescent Mental Health

UK government initiatives have proposed changes in the provision of child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) within the NHS. In response to this, tier 2 services have been created to provide early assessment and intervention and improved access. This study investigated whether these services met the aims compared to traditional generic tier 3 services, using data from a national mapping exercise. The results were consistent with the tier 2 services providing early assessment and intervention and enhanced accessibility of the services compared to tier 3. The implications of these results in relation to service development are discussed.
